Argentina Cinco de Mayo

We through a surprise party for Ana Lia. Her birthday is on May 5th (Cinco de Mayo). I realize that Cinco de Mayo is a Mexican celebration and that my best friend is from Argentina and more over that the whole big drinking/food party of Cinco de Mayo is an American "thing." But, the theme of a "tacky" tex-mex cinco de Mayo party seemed like fun and with the help of several friends well pulled off a great party. We truly did surprise Ana Lia, who thought that she was coming over to my house for a get together for mother's day. Throwing a surprise party for Ana Lia was not easy as Rodolfo and Rodolfo end up having to drive to Miami to a funeral and Ana Lia tried to cancel on us due to some church function-but I told her she still had to come over (in my head I am thinking there are 40 people coming to my house that night!) When she walked into the kitchen and everyone yelled "happy birthday", she turn to me and said "it is just supposed to be you and me for dinner tonight." The tex-mex theme was a blast with a pinata, tissue flowers, tacos, quesadillas, and mexican music.
